Gorkha2010 Project Launched

A team of Nepali students who recently graduated from U.S. colleges are helping to renovate Shanker School (Arupokhari - 8, Gorkha) and also bring the Dharapani Community Library (Arupokhari - 7, Gorkha) into operation. Their project is called The Energy for Education Project (also Gorkha2010 Project), funded by the Davis Foundation, a private American organization, through the Projects for Peace grant. Anuj Adhikary and Kaustubh Thapa are heading the project, and have launched collaborative tasks with Sambhav Nepal in promoting education in this Gorkha village.




Sambhav Nepal is providing field support to the Gorkha2010 project in ameliorating the education infrastructure of Arupokhari village and the vicinity. The project is well underway as the team has accomplished some major landmarks of their objectives.

Detailed information can be found on the Gorkha2010 website.
